Re: Hun Sen blames Cambodian loggers for provoking Thai soldiers to shoot them [Hun Sen blames the victims, not the perpetrators]
This government put the blame on Khmers for illegal logging for their own good by letting its own people and nation down.
Even if Khmers went to Thailand without do any logging activities but Thai soldiers still shooting Khmer and said ‘illegal loggers’.
The Thai trees can recover but the Khmer life perishes forever. This government's statement has encouraged Thai soldiers to continue to shoot innocent Khmers for the future to come.
Vietnamese stole Khmer jobs and push Khmer to find jobs in overseas because of this puppet government.
This government never show respect to their own people and never ever protected their own people.
This government has transformed Khmer people to be slaves to serve for other countries. Our constitution state that ‘no one shall be sentenced to death’ but our leaders condemn our people to die by encouraging Thai soldiers in the speech to shoot and kill Khmers.
For thousand of years Khmers never become slaves of other nations, but now Khmers have become unwanted slaves (cheaper than normal slaves) and be slaves of other nations. Khmers have to find jobs elsewhere but Khmer natural resources are kept for the benefits of a few leaders and Oknha.
The nations around the world, especially our neighbours, have never commented to their people to die like this ever but this government did this because these government leaders have no Khmer blood, example look at real biography of those leaders and their cronies, from Khmer Rouge on trial to present Khmer Rouge in power.

12:30 AM, well put. Only a corrupt and irresponsible leader like Hun Sen blames the victims by giving the perpetrators more reasons to shoot Khmers. A responsible leader would just send condolences to the victims' families and, on top, makes a request to the Thai government to stop the shooting or even lodge a protest with the Thai government for shooting unarmed civilians. Like 12:30 AM said "The Thai trees can recover but the Khmer life perishes forever. This government's statement has encouraged Thai soldiers to continue to shoot innocent Khmers for the future to come".
Hun Sen must know the reason why these loggers take the risks to cross the border to cut timbers in Thailand. It is because of his poor and corrupt leadership that makes them and Cambodia poor and this is the reason why they dare to risks their life. Another thing is, people must know that the Khmer-Thai border is not properly marked. In some areas, no one knows where the border line lies. The areas where they logged could be Khmer territory, but Khmer soldiers have no ability to protect them and the Thai soldiers moved in. This has happened in many areas along the Khmer-Thai and Khmer-Viet border. Also, in many cases it was the corrupt military leaders along the border who hired the poor villagers to cut the trees for them, telling them that the areas are inside Cambodia and it is safe to go there.
It is sad and embarrassing for Hun Sen to make this sort of statement. I condemn him in the strongest term.

You should be careful who you're calling the perpetrator. The Khmer loggers crossed into Thai territory and cut their trees. First of all, those Khmer people already broke Thai immigration law by entering their territory illegal. Secondly, they broke Thai law again by illegally cutting their trees. As brutal and barbaric as they are, the Thai have all the rights to shoot and do whatever they want when you conduct illegal activities in their land. They will make a bitch and corpse out of you.
Now back to the question. Who is the perpetrator? Khmer loggers illegally entering and cutting Thai trees or the Thai soldiers shooting illegal loggers cutting their trees?
It is amazing how some people feel the need to be anti-hun so much they can't see objective truth for what they are sometime.

A statement like Hun Sen from any other country would stir the population into a frenzy. Even when the Thai politician who illegally enter Cambodia was not treated inhumanly by the Cambodian officials.
Even the Thai premier still back them up.
How can you shoot and kill unarmed civilians? How can you sit there and say they deserve it? Your thoughts and mind set is totally misguided. I can go on and on. But your comment already prove my opinions about most khmers. We are so dysfunctional.
You don't sound like Khmer faggot ass. So it's okay for me to slaughter your families whose accidently crossed into Thailand or I should I call Khmerland. This low life CPP's all they do is serving foreign interest and disregard the safety of their own people. I wish I know who you are on this blog so I can confront you of what you said about Khmer people. Khmer people are not cheap. They arn't deserve to die like that. You have no rights to judge their fate MoFo!!!
5:17 pm You should be very careful of what you just said about poor Khmer people. I stand for my Khmer blood.
hun sen getting arrogant everday and he get away whit it now it sound like he encorage siam troop to shot khmer eventho they innocent people that siam troop say "illigal logge".
One does not have to be anti-Hun Sen or anti-CPP to condemn his twisted mindset. His public utterance and statement in this tragic context is enough to make one's blood boils with rage; all the more irresponsible and reprehensible a stance as it is taken by a supposedly elected PM of the nation?
Vietnamese police and soldiers have been seen escorting vehicles along highway 1 from Bavet to Phnom Penh and elsewhere in the Kingdom with small arms at the ready as if to shoot to kill anyone who dares to halt their movements. They don't even need to disguise their Vietnamese police/military uniforms!
Words are not enough to describe the hypocrisy and cowardly connivance of someone who places no value on human life in his political chessboard and who has a long history of sacrificing innocent Khmer people's blood at the alter of self-preservation.
Contrast this negligence and irresponsibility with the pressure and pleas from Vietnam's leaders for the safety and welfare of ethnic Vietnamese living in the country and one should get the sense in terms of what Cambodia has at stake under this gross, misguided leadership of Hen Sen et al.
I`m really disappointed to see you stated the poor loggers are deserved to be shot. Who want to be poor? Who want to be shot? Do you thing that the poor life is cheap? If they are against law, we can send them into the prison and find out whether they really do it or not. Or cutting one tree deserves one life. What do you want to mean? Please think again. Your life and his life are the same valuable, and no one deserves to be killed.
Wow..statement from the "Great Leader" Hun Sen, all illegal loggers deserve to be shot on the spot. Does he not know that all human lives are valuable and that only the court of laws should determine what crime was committed before they are sentence..including death if that is the penalty? All humans do not deserve to be shot like animals because someone eles' "perception" that the law was broken.
Hun Sen's comments reflect his ignorant about the deeper issues of Cambodian problems; his inner circle corruptions, the issue of poverty, and the mismanaging of the country's resources. Most importantly, it reflects his deep rooted Khmer rouge ideology and Vietnam interference on Cambodian's sovereignty. Mr Hun Sen, if you are Khmer you must do everything within your power to protect Khmer citizens and Khmer land.
5:17 PM, it is shameful that because there is a need for you to support Hun Sen that you support his statement that Khmers deserved to be shot because they had crossed into Thailand. Whether one is anit- or pro-Hun Sen, one must feel outraged at his statement. Where on earth do leaders condenm their people to die just because they need to earn a living to survive. These people don't cross the border by themselves, they were hired by corrupt military leaders to cut trees for their illegal business.
